To complete this ambitious challenge, the team will endure three long days on their feet, trekking over mountainous terrain, at altitudes of over 2,500m. They will trek through France, Italy and Switzerland, staying in basic refuge facilities. For some, this will be the first time they have taken on a physical or fundraising challenge of this scale – and it will certainly be tough!

The children and families we care for face challenges every day and with just six per cent of our annual funding coming from Government, every year we hope people will choose to support us by taking on a challenge of their own. Regular respite is a life-saver for families with a very sick child and by fundraising for us, the team will be helping to throw these families a lifeline and give them the well-earned break they so desperately need.  

You can support the team in their fundraising efforts by making a donation to one of their sponsorship pages below. Every donation is hugely appreciated and will help to support local life-limited children and their families throughout Dorset and Wiltshire.
